Scotland boss Gordon Strachan has heaped praise on aspiring international debutant Matt Ritchie.
Ritchie, who plays as a right winger, is likely to make his international debut for Scotland on Wednesday in the Hampden Park meeting with Northern Ireland.
The 25-year old has scored nine goals for Championship side AFC Bournemouth this season and may soon play in Premier League as the Cherries are in pursuit of automatic promotion.
Strachan said: "His passing, crossing and shooting was good and he blended terrifically well with players. There is lots to like about him.
"He is playing with the best footballing side in the Championship, Bournemouth."
